∗giggles∗ Not a bad idea!

A german guy I traded with a few years ago had made stickers with the
original logo. I received three or so as a bonus with our deal. I stuck one
to each rack blinds I had (1 U blinds, seldom use those now though) and one
to a box I use for the eproms for my SDS-1's. Looks great!

I've thought about the idea that when playing live re-labelling all gear
with the wrong names would be fun. It sure could get the gear-heads in the
audience something to think about... ;)
